I built RGB LEDs into the LEGO Technic Extreme Offroader. Now you can remote control it with the lights on. It automatically turns on indicators when you turn. The tail lights go white when you reverse and you can turn the overhead lights into police lights. Every color and every animation is now possible! There is an LMS-ESP32 board that controls the LEDs and listens for remote control commands.
